im really confused

is it noraml that the exact same ram kit comes with a b-die variant and an e-die variant?

saw somewhere that is not

You can tell E-Die from the timings, which are usually 16-18-18 or looser at 3600mhz for example. 

 

Yes they can use different ICs in the same part number or Very very similar part number.

Example Kit with different IC's

F4-3600C16D-32GTZN (B-Die kit)

F4-3600C16D-32GTZNC

i got 2 of the exact kit model

CMK16GX4M2D3600C18

one is a B-die kit with Samsung's memory

the other one is an E-die kit with micron's memory

they are both 18-22-22-42-64 3600MHZ

Yes, like I said, that's possible.

And why when suggesting memory, get a Kit with 4 sticks instead of buying separately at different times.

ok thanks homie

i bought my pc with 16gb and i just had a couple of bucks on my amazon account so i just ordered some ram since every other item is really overpriced with shipping and taxes :(

It's ok. Since the memory has the same timings, They should be OK together. Just may not run that 3600mhz on the AMD IMC. But 3200mhz might be doable. I think you have an overclock going already don't you?

they run perfectly at 3600 18 with my 10600K on 4.8

just trying tighten the ram a bit

next time i think ill go with a 16gb 4000MHZ CL15 kit and see if i can play wth the timings

That's good to hear! 

I do 2 sticks 16GB only for high clocks beyond 4000mhz.  Seems to be the way to go at those frequencies.

What board? I use the Maximus X Hero and 8700K. It looses stability past 4300mhz. I'm pretty sure it's the IMC though. Just tops out even on it's XMP CL19 timings. I can drop the Cas really loose and get some usability from it, but just not stable enough. The Kit I use it 4267mhz CL19-19-19 1.40v.

that a mad kit!

got a z490 vision g 

im not really the guy that buys a new pc every 3 years (my last pc had an i5 3550 that i pushed to 4.1ghz) so i went with a strong board and im planning on upgrading my 10600K in about 3 or 4 years to a 10900K or 11900K since they will probably be really cheap by then

im looking on maybe getting custom loop parts this upcoming black friday maybe ill find a good deal so i can push my 10600K ever farther 

i currently have a corsair h100x aio but i dont want to push my cpu too far since it does get toasty when im rendering around 70c on all cores at 4.8 on 1.3v and around mid 80s on 4.9 all cores 1.33v (got pretty unlucky with the silicon)

its really funny to see that my old 3550, that wasn't intended to be overclocked, has a better silicon then my 10600'K'

but its still a beast

for the more attainable specs it's not uncommon for ram manufacturers to use whatever's handy at the time,

Nah, 1.33v is in the ballpark. Not great, but not bad.

Custom loop is good. Full copper waterblocik. Fan on the VRMs is a good idea. 

Fan on the memory won't hurt either. The cooler they run, the more stable they'll be.
